University Galleries include three exhibition spaces for art on the University campus:
- Sheppard Contemporary (Northwest wing on second floor of Church Fine Arts Building)
- McNamara Hallway Gallery (second floor of Church Fine Arts Building)
- Student Galleries South (Rooms 107 and 107A in Jot Travis Building)
These galleries maintain a full and intensive program of professional art exhibitions featuring work from regional, national, and international contemporary artists, as well as supporting faculty research, student exhibitions such as MFA and BFA Thesis exhibits, and popular programming like the Annual Student Art Show and the biennial Valentine Art Auction.
The McNamara Hallway Gallery is located in the hallway outside of the Sheppard Contemporary Gallery, near room 162, in the Church Fine Arts Building.
Named after Walter McNamara, former longtime curator of University Galleries, the McNamara Hallway Gallery is a flexible gallery space that shows student artwork, experimental projects, and community exhibitions. Inaugurated in 1987, when the North Wing of the Church Fine Arts building was constructed, this space brightens our hall space and provides students with easy access to rotating exhibitions.
